I Love the Red Sox/I Hate the Yankees

by Jon Chattman, Allie Tarantino, Rich Tarantino

Presented in a unique reversible-book format, I Love the Red Sox/I Hate the Yankees is the ultimate Red Sox fan guide to baseball’s most celebrated and storied rivalry. Full of interesting trivia, hilarious history, and inside scoops, the book relates the fantastic stories of legendary Red Sox managers and star players, including Ted Williams, Jim Rice, and David Ortiz, as well as the numerous villains who have donned the pinstripes over the years. Like two books in one, this completely biased account of the rivalry proclaims the irrefutable reasons to cheer the Red Sox and boo the Yankees and shows that there really is no fine line between love and hate.

A good read for the die hard and newbie fan. It's an easy read that presents Red Sox history in a fun narrative format. While there are quite a number of stats, they are presented in a humorous way. Definitely a good read for sports fans and non-sports fans.

This was a fun book. You can tell that the authors love the material, but as a person who's not quite a Boston Red Sox expert sometimes some of this went right over my head. Overall, though, very entertaining.
